摘要： A method for erasing noise and a residual image in a storage phosphor, comprising: reading out an exposed storage phosphor which is transported in a first direction by scanning the storage phosphor in a line scan direction perpendicular to the first direction, with a reciprocating stimulating beam of light which causes the storage phosphor to emit light in a first frequency range, the beam of light being suppressed during retrace; erasing the storage phosphor after the reading out with light of a second frequency range and additionally with light of the first frequency range during retrace when the stimulating light beam is supressed.

The cantilevered element includes a first layer constructed of an electrically resistive material, such as titanium aluminide, patterned to have a first resistor segment and a second resistor segment each extending from the base element; a coupling device that conducts electrical current serially between the first and second resistor segments; and a second layer constructed of a dielectric material having a low coefficient of thermal expansion and attached to the first layer. A first electrode connected to the first resistor segment and a second electrode connected to the second resistor segment are provided to apply an electrical voltage pulse between the first and second electrodes thereby causing an activation power density in the first and second resistor segments and a power density maximum within the coupling device resulting in a deflection of the cantilevered element to a second position and wherein the power density maximum is less than four times the activation power density.

摘要： An apparatus for and method of operating a thermal actuator for a micromechanical device, especially a liquid drop emitter such as an ink jet printhead, is disclosed. The disclosed thermal actuator comprises a base element and a cantilevered element extending a length L from a base element and normally residing at a first position before activation. The cantilevered element includes a barrier layer constructed of a dielectric material having low thermal conductivity, a first deflector layer constructed of a first electrically resistive material having a large coefficient of thermal expansion and patterned to have a first uniform resistor portion extending a length LH1 from the base element, wherein 0.3L≦LH1≦0.7L, and a second deflector layer constructed of a second electrically resistive material having a large coefficient of thermal expansion and patterned to have a second uniform resistor portion extending a length LH2 from the base element, wherein 0.3L≦LH2≦0.7L, and wherein the barrier layer is bonded between the first and second deflector layers. The thermal actuator further comprises a first pair of electrodes connected to the first uniform resistor portion and a second pair of electrodes is connected to the second uniform resistor portion for applying electrical pulses to cause resistive heating of the first or second deflector layers, resulting in thermal expansion of the first or second deflector layer relative to the other. Application of an electrical pulse to either pair of electrodes causes deflection of the cantilevered element away from its first position and, alternately, causes a positive or negative pressure in the liquid at the nozzle of a liquid drop emitter. Application of electrical pulses to the pairs of electrodes is used to adjust the characteristics of liquid drop emission. The barrier layer exhibits a heat transfer time constant &tgr;B. The thermal actuator is activated by a heat pulses of duration &tgr;P wherein &tgr;P

摘要： A liquid drop emitter, such as an ink jet device, for emitting a series of liquid drops at high frequency is disclosed. The drop emitter comprises a liquid-filled chamber having a nozzle, a thermo-mechanical actuator for applying pressure to liquid at the nozzle, means for heating the thermo-mechanical actuator in response to electrical pulses, and a controller for determining the parameters of the electrical pulses. The method of operating comprises determining a nominal electrical pulse having a nominal energy E0, a nominal pulse duration TP0, which causes the emission of at least one drop at a sustained period of repetition TC. The method of operating further determines a steady state electrical pulse having energy E0, a steady state pulse duration TPss, which, when applied to the electroresistive means does not cause the emission or weeping of the liquid from the nozzle. The method applies to the means for heating, during every period of time TC, a nominal electrical pulse to emit at least one drop, or a steady state electrical pulse, so that an average power PAVE, where PAVE=E0/TC, is applied to the liquid drop emitter in order to maintain a steady state thermal condition.

摘要： A continuous liquid ejection system includes a substrate defining a liquid chamber. An orifice plate, affixed to the substrate, includes a MEMS transducing member. The MEMS transducing member includes a first portion anchored to the substrate and a second portion extending over and free to move relative to the liquid chamber. A compliant membrane, positioned in contact with the MEMS transducing member, includes an orifice and a first portion covering the MEMS transducing member and a second portion anchored to the substrate. A liquid supply provides a liquid to the liquid chamber under a pressure sufficient to eject a continuous jet of the liquid through the orifice located in the compliant membrane. The MEMS transducing member is selectively actuated to cause a portion of the compliant membrane to be displaced relative to the liquid chamber to cause a drop of liquid to break off from the liquid jet.

摘要： An apparatus for and method of operating a thermal actuator for a micromechanical device, especially a liquid drop emitter such as an ink jet printhead, is disclosed. The disclosed thermal actuator comprises a base element and a cantilevered element extending from the base element and normally residing at a first position before activation. The cantilevered element includes a barrier layer constructed of a low thermal conductivity material, bonded between a deflector layer and a restorer layer, both of which are constructed of materials having substantially equal coefficients of thermal expansion. The thermal actuator further comprises an apparatus adapted to apply a heat pulse directly to the deflector layer, causing a thermal expansion of the deflector layer relative to the restorer layer and deflection of the cantilevered element to a second position, followed by restoration of the cantilevered element to the first position as heat diffuses through the barrier layer to the restorer layer and the cantilevered element reaches a uniform temperature. When used as a thermal actuator for liquid drop emitters, the cantilevered element resides in a liquid-filled chamber that includes a nozzle for ejecting liquid. Application of a heat pulse to the cantilevered element causes deflection of a free end forcing liquid from the nozzle. The barrier layer exhibits a heat transfer time constant &tgr;B. The thermal actuator is activated by a heat pulse of duration &tgr;P at a repetion time of at least &tgr;C, wherein &tgr;P 3 &tgr;B.
